Taxes during admin of Republican Pres. Eisenhower would look radical Left today. When we had a thriving middle class was when we had much higher levels of tax on the very rich. Our tax policies since have created a massive transfer of wealth into the hands of .001% of Americans.

Nothing that even begins to approach the level of a wealth tax, but if I had $50 million I would be proud to pay it.

Wealth tax please.
Amazon's quarterly profit just tripled
Meanwhile, over 100,000 small businesses have closed forever. Average revenue for the rest is down 20%
This is a wealth transfer from small biz owners to Jeff Bezos, who has gotten $90 billion richer in the pandemic

Health isn’t the absence of sickness; sickness is the absence of health. Peace isn’t the absence of war; war is the absence of peace. Unabashed love isn’t the absence of evil; evil is the absence of unabashed love.

Read the book again! Every character had transformed by the end. Calling someone a Pollyanna should be considered a complement. She was actually a total change-agent and that’s what the book was intended to be about.

All this evil is going to have an ultimately positive affect, I have to believe that. It’s going to awaken the conscience of America. We’re going to rise en masse and redirect the power of this country towards love and reverence and equality and justice. washingtonpost.com/nation/20…

Just to be clear, “substantially understating the risk” means it kills people. But of course they’re selling it anyway....
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed this summer and ruled the EPA had substantially understated the risks related to the use of dicamba. Yet @EPA just agreed to this poison for 5 years. news.yahoo.com/u-epa-approve…
